gun powder rules


i am proposing this ruleset to the ragnarok warcouncil this year, let me know what you think. also, this is not a ruleset for the moa, just an extra thing, like rapier fighting in SCA.

Premilinary Dagorhir Gunpowder rules (version 1.1)
Written by Frothgar

General
• A gun powder weapon is any construction that uses compressed air to propel a foam projectile.
• No combustion or elastic methods of propulsion may be used (this is not an exhaustive list).
• All gunpowder weapons must be passed as such by a trained weapon checker.
• Gunpowder weapons can not be used as a melee weapon in any way, ever.
• Gun powder weapons must have one inch at the end of the barrel painted day-glo orange.
• Any gunpowder weapon must make a reasonable attempt to appear as a primitive fire arm.
• No gunpowder weapon may fire faster than 1 shot every 30 seconds.
• A rammer used to push a slug into the barrel must be made entirely of foam.
• All gunpowder weapons must be single shot, muzzleloaders. No breech loading.
• All gunpowder weapons are tested to be safely fired a back at 10 ft, then point blank at a back.

Ammo
• Gunpowder weapon projectiles (hereafter called slugs) are to be constructed entirely of foam and cloth. No tape may be used.
• Slugs must be larger than 2 inches in diameter when fully expanded.
• Slugs may be no longer than twice its width.
• Slugs may be compacted when loaded into a gun powder weapon.
• Solid slugs are the only allowable ammunition. Grapeshot/ case shot are thereby not legal.

Damage
Handheld
• Hand held gunpowder weapons incapacitate any limb it strikes, regardless of armour.
• Gunpowder weapons do damage to the head and neck, regardless of armour.
• If a slug strikes a shield the shield is destroyed.
• A slug that strikes its target and is deflected is considered dead. Only one person can be injured by one slug.

Siege
• Large non-hand held gunpowder weapons (hereafter referred to as cannon) are classified as siege weapons.
• Cannon do damage as a siege weapon.
